Kitty Harris Enraged Over ‘Made Up Dialogue’ In Fictional Film

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

For those of you who are rich and elitist and can afford HBO, you may have seen the much-hyped film Recount over Memorial Day weekend, which chronicled Al Gore’s efforts to hijack the country during the 2000 election in disenfranchised Florida. The movie was terrible and hilarious, although Laura Dern’s portrayal of then-Florida Secretary of State Katherine “Kitty” Harris deserves at least 19 Oscars and maybe even a Golden Globe. Anyway, Kitty went on Fox News last night to complain about the writers of the film “making up dialogue,” a serious cinematic violation of ethics. Kitty’s attorney appeared by her side on the show to make sure she didn’t screw up, such is her wont. [YouTube, St. Petersburg Times]

WHAT IS WITH SOME PEOPLE: Another Fat Cat Clinton supporter, Harvey Weinstein, apparently had a heated conversation with Nancy Pelosi late last month where he “threatened to cut off contributions to congressional Democrats unless House Speaker Nancy Pelosi embraced his plan to finance revotes in Florida and Michigan.” It should be noted that Harvey Weinstein makes movies for a living.

Oliver Stone Movie Will Solve George W. Bush’s Assassination

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

Dems took mah big flag :(Beloved filmmaker Oliver Stone hasn’t done anything interesting since 1963, when he made the “Zapruder Film” that showed how JFK was killed by the Conspiracy. Now the veteran director is taking on the story of another person who lived in the White House: the president of freedom, George W. Bush. Not even a Leonard Cohen soundtrack or Tommy Lee Jones playing a mincing New Orleans homosexual could make this movie not suck. MORE »


Rocky Balboa Was A Fighter, Just Like Hillary!

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

Oh, HillaryYou knew that when the Presidential campaign hit Philadelphia that at least one candidate was going to say “I’m just like Rocky,” right? The only question was which politician would be the first to compare him or herself to the famous movie boxer who lost in a split decision to a black man who was later killed. You’ll never guess who’s America’s next Rocky Balboa! MORE »


Mulder & Scully Crack 9/11-Condi Conspiracy

Thursday, March 27th, 2008

It's a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma.A long time ago in the 1990s there was this teevee program called The X-Files — a creepy mix of Nixon-era political conspiracy, the occult, fake terror attacks, FEMA killing everybody, and Space Demons. It seemed completely fantastic until 2001, when Dick Cheney and George W. Bush began their reign of horror. And finally, after years of silence, the creators of the X-Files are talking about how this administration stole all their ideas, even 9/11! MORE »


John Edwards Releases Most Irritating Ad Ever

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

Lord knows where he got the funding for this modern epic, but it seems to be a waste. Seriously, the cheesy voiceover guy with the movie trailer theme? If you’re going to go down that road, at least have some gun fights or explosions or snippets of you beating the shit out of a Merck executive in that mill you keep talking about.


Fred Thompson, America’s Serial Killer Candidate

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

%21%21fredjavier.jpgProps to the conniving sleuths over at Slate’s Trailhead for discovering this alarming comparison between Javier Bardem (right), here portraying a demented psychopath in the Coen Brothers’ excellent No Country For Old Men, and a younger Fred Thompson, here futuristically portraying a dumbass. Oh, wait a sec — No Country For Old Men? This entire movie is an allegory about the middling Thompson campaign! So then Tommy Lee Jones’ sheriff character is really… Walnuts?? [Trailhead]
